Thirty years ago, one of the first battles in the Yugoslav wars took place at that border crossing. Austrian public television filmed the event. Their footage was later used to promote the narrative of alleged war crimes. Now, thirty years later, former enemies meet again for the first time. Former Slovenian border police commander Otokar Praper, who was defending the border crossing, meets ex-sergeant of the Yugoslav army Husein Sabic, who was leading the attack. The two talk in the bar at the border with other ex-Slovenian policemen, and they step by step analyze the events thirty years in the past. In the meantime, the participants of the round table try to agree on what happened, what is the truth, and where international criminal justice stands today. Dr. Misa Zgonec Rozej at the round table explains that witnesses are important in the proceedings of the criminal process, and ex-members of the Yugoslav People's Army at Holmec, in the meantime, explain that they were not harmed during the phase filmed by ORF when war crimes allegedly took place. Ex-Yugoslav army sergeant Husein Sabic says the same: there were no war crimes at the battle of Holmec. Journalism, it is said, provides the first draft of history, but sometimes the fog of war makes the truth very elusive.

- The first underground photograph was made by the French man Louis Boutan back in 1893 on a plate. His camera weighed at least 200 kilos. It was locked in a copper barrel. The plates were made especially for him by the Lumière brothers. It took another four decades, before the German Hans Haas constructed the first closed housing system in 1937, and made a series of good underwater photographs in the Adriatic Sea. The same summer, a small group of Slovene natural science students, who called themselves Racani, dived beneath the sea without a helmet. They replaced it with an ingenious home-made diving gear. They took their first underwater photographs with their simple home-made "bell". With this, Slovenes equalled the achievements of the Germans and became the first underwater photographers. Not only that, we became the pioneers of exploratory and scientific underwater photography, as the first scientifically analysed and catalogued collection of plant and animal photographs made the very same year proves. These pioneers were Ivan Kuscer, Dusan Kuscer, Marko Zalokar and Drago Leskovsek. Racani wrote in their diary: Each of us dived into the bay at Raca that day. The blueness of the sea, the fish, algae and the sea urchins were exciting enough. It is a special feeling to hover in the "blue". You're by yourself, hanging by a thick rope and surrounded by a blue emptiness. You lose your sense of distance, the bottom is infinitely deep. That was our dream. Freed from the laws of gravity, I floated in a three-dimensional space. Thanks to my new "lungs", I could make carefree moves, levitated in emptiness, ascended and descended... I vaguely felt that I was cheating nature. But it seemed impossible to be punished for such a beautiful sin. This spot under the Velebit range was our home for seven summers. Here we made our first steps into the wonderful, undersea world. Raca was the site of numerous fantastic experiences, our promised land, where we forgot all the perks of city life. It was a school where we learned about nature and ourselves. We wish everyone to have such great times as we had here. What drove those young men, who had just recently come of age, to set out in 1937 on foot to the coast, and became part of the history of the undersea studies and also pioneers of exploratory underwater photography? A hidden story about human passion and an unending yearning to discover the unknown - a story about an astonishing beauty and the aesthetics of the mysterious.
